Question

I recently went for a routine health check-up and everything seemed fine, but I'm a bit worried about my ALANINE AMINOTRANSFERASE or ALTSGPT levels. The result came back as 131, whereas I read the normal range is supposed to be between 21 and 72. My SGOT level was 52. I've heard that these tests are connected to liver health. Should I be concerned about these results? What are some effective ways to lower my ALTSGPT levels? The test was done using UV with P5P.

Question

I'm having some concerns and need advice. Yesterday morning, I took an ascazin tab and since then I've been feeling bloated or like my belly is full even without eating. Could it be the ascazin tab causing this, or maybe it's related to the MMR vaccine? Later in the evening on the same day, I also started experiencing shortness of breath and feeling lightheaded. I'm really worried because I have no fever, cough, or cold. Can you help figure out what's going on with my stomach?
